I knitted the first half on the way there and knitted the rest of it on the way back. Here it is:
For the sleeves, it had called for US 7 DPN which I didn't have on me so I bought some at Urban Yarns in Vancouver. They are Crystal Palace Daisey needles which is made out of Resin. It feels like plastic to me but it a really great needles. I couldn't believe it but it was so flexible and so smooth that my stitches just glide along beautifully. I also love the whymsically colors that it comes in and I think I would need to get a few more sets in different sizes. Of course, after I put an order for the new Knit Pick Harmany needles. Is that a dream set or what?

Oh that is so sweet!
I had to laugh at the vision of security guards trying to make sense of a interchangeable needle set, lol!

Hi, Joy! The baby sweater is just gorgeous - wish I had a baby to make one for...
and I can't believe you actually got all your needles through customs! I always take wooden ones now, because I had some metal tips confiscated a couple of years ago - you must have excellent powers of persuasion!
